ISKRA, Bulgaria - (Left to right) Petty Officer 2nd Class Chris Moore, of the U.S. Coast Guard Cutter Dallas, and Maria, a child at the Saint Ekaterina Orphanage, play with a soccer ball that the crew of the Dallas donated to the orphanage Monday, Sept. 8, 2008. Moore was among a group of 21 other people from the Coast Guard Cutter Dallas who took a 45-minute bus ride from where the cutter is moored in Burgas, Bulgaria, to the orphanage, which houses 51 people with mental disabilities, ranging in age from three to 25 years old. The Dallas crew painted the wall at the entrance to the orphanage, cleaned the grounds around one of the play areas, and played games with the children during their visit.
